Abstract Smallflower umbrella sedge is one of the problematic weeds in direct-seeded rice in India. Bispyribac-sodium (acetolactate synthase-inhibiting herbicide) is a commonly used in rice, but recently growers have reported lack of smallflower umbrella sedge control with this herbicide. An extensive survey was carried out in two rice growing states, Chhattisgarh and Kerala, where 53 putative bispyribac-sodium resistant (BR) biotypes were collected. Studies were conducted to confirm resistance to bispyribac-sodium and to test the efficacy of newly developed synthetic auxin herbicide florpyrauxifen-benzyl on putative BR biotypes. Whole-plant bioassay revealed that bispyribac-sodium is no longer effective. Of 53 putative BR biotypes, 17 biotypes survived recommended label rate of 25 g ai ha−1. Effective bispyribac-sodium rate required to control 50% of the plants in most of the BR biotypes (ED50) ranged from 19 to 96 g ha−1 whereas it was 10 g ha−1 in susceptible biotype. In two highly resistant biotypes, ED50 was beyond the maximum tested rate, 200 g ha−1. This suggests 2 to >20-fold resistance in BR biotypes. Acetolactate synthase (ALS) enzyme activity assay suggests altered target site as mechanism of resistance to bispyribac-sodium. This study confirms the first case of evolved resistance in smallflower umbrella sedge for bispyribac-sodium in India. However, the newly developed synthetic auxin, florpyrauxifen-benzyl effectively controlled all BR biotypes at the field use rate 31.25 g ae ha−1.

Design And Synthesis

Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) has been identified as one of the most promising targets for herbicide discovery. A series of novel phthalimide derivatives were designed by molecular docking studies targeting the crystal structure of mitochondrial PPO from tobacco (mtPPO, PDB: 1SEZ) by using Flumioxazin as a lead, after which the derivatives were synthesized and characterized, and their herbicidal activities were subsequently evaluated. The herbicidal bioassay results showed that compounds such as 3a (2-(4-bromo-2,6-difluorophenyl) isoindoline-1,3-dione), 3d (methyl 2-(4-chloro-1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-5-fluorobenzoate), 3g (4-chloro-2-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl) isoindoline-1,3-dione), 3j (4-chloro-2-(thiophen-2-ylmethyl) isoindoline-1,3-dione) and 3r (2-(4-bromo-2,6-difluorophenyl)-4-fluoroisoindoline-1,3-dione) had good herbicidal activities; among them, 3a showed excellent herbicidal efficacy against A. retroflexus and B. campestris via the small cup method and via pre-emergence and post-emergence spray treatments. The efficacy was comparable to that of the commercial herbicides Flumioxazin, Atrazine, and Chlortoluron. Further, the enzyme activity assay results suggest that the mode of action of compound 3a involves the inhibition of the PPO enzyme, and 3a showed better inhibitory activity against PPO than did Flumioxazin. These results indicate that our molecular design strategy contributes to the development of novel promising PPO inhibitors.
